PL Has gone down

[Bazinga!]

I really like Pl but recently everything has been pretty disappointing.
1. If you had to make a cap you coulda made it 81. A mini cap sounded like you just wanted to fix the pvp stuff and now mages r op.
2. Even if it is 77, the cap is pretty disappointing. Its just a remake of Sandstone Caves with overpowered mobs, even the gear is same just different names. If ur intention was to make people play the game longer, you dont have to make it tough, just interesting. How you make it interesting is up to you.
3.Now NativeX is gone. Its not your fault but atleast you could give free respecs while its down. Or you could have offers on trialpay that actually work...
4. If you cant come up with something original. Ask us to think of something. There are a lot of creative ppl here.

Good post.

None of that even matters anymore. I was on PL today and I felt a decrease in the pl community. There aren't as many people anymore. As soon as I log on I just feel like logging off. No friends on.., theres not really anyone to talk to. Scammers and ToS breakers have taken over. I really could care less about the content. But right now it feels like PL is slowly reaching its end point. Eventually it'll end up like SL and DL. For me, I'm slowly taking steps and moving on to new things now.
And seriously, if you aren't happy with the game don't play it. I'm not happy with it, so I found better things to do. And you.. should do the same.

Good point Apa. This is exactly why the PL community has decreased. But unless theyre shutting the game down eventually, why arent they doing anything about these stuff. If they are shutting it down they could at least make an announcement that theyre not gonna update it anymore.

well said. I had stopped playing but tried again when the new cap came out. Finding out players took advantage of the pet glitch and got free bonuses for capping just one character kind of took the enthusiasm away for capping each of my characters. Now I'm debating whether it's worth the looong grind to 300k or just stop playing. Things have been bad for a while.

Did you just call mages Op?

Maybe if we used a full restore the game will become healthy

[GreenLord]

And I'm sure the devs are going to surprise us by adding a large content update, like a few new items, a class, or a mini expansion...the ancient caverns expansion at least sparked many players.....

You are dreaming

You are dreaming

Its called optimism

[Mothwing]

Would you rather have people still complaining about elite rings? Be thankful that we got something, it's better than no cap. All we can do is wait and see what they do. Complaining on the forums won't get you anywhere; if you really want to support the game and bring PL back to its glory, buy platinum. It's obvious why AL gets all the attention, so I really don't understand the people that are like, "Ya, I refuse to buy platinum because the updates suck." If you used brain power you would realize that just makes it worse.

I commend your optimism, but PL will never recover. Buying platinum wont help because 1. AL will always be more updated, it having 10x more players and more money rolling in 2. Nothing to spend platinum on (at least not as much as AL) and 3. The money will be used to fund AL.

If you only understood how much some of us spent only to see it all go to AL and the new "strategy" games, you might change your tune. I could blow your mind if I showed you what I spent (willingly) on PL. Thing is, I know others who spent a ton more than I did. A product which doesn't show a return in investment is no longer a product worth investing in. Us old, grumpy people realized this and parted ways before the bottom officially fell out.

So you're saying that even if PL matched AL's platinum purchases, STS would continue to fund and focus on AL because they simply "care more about it?" That makes absolutely no sense from a business standpoint, and last time I checked STS is a business.

And how can they provide content to spend platinum on when nobody is buying platinum to support the game. And your last point is irrelevant; STS will fund whatever game has the biggest business. It's pretty obvious if you check Doc's update timeline and compare it to the release of other games, the exception being AL because for some reason everybody likes that game. As Doc or someone else said on the thread, the games see the most attention during their prime, or when they were first released. We saw this for SL when it was released as well as DL. So if PL suddenly became more popular, I can guarantee you we would see more updates.

And yes I like to stay optimistic with the game I've been playing for 3-4 years of my life.

Understood, but at least we got updates. The time between BSM and AC was insane.

And I believe the amount of money that you spent, but I think that the number of people that play the game also matters. I bet you that not everybody on AL spends hundreds of dollars on platinum. If they do, we have bigger problems...

That simple buddy

[Oxymoron]

Its really tough being a dev now, everyday he/she has to read so many negative things about the game they created and maintains. Seems they can do no right. Does everyone really think reusing but renaming maps, gears takes no effort? Renaming the loots and making sure they drop correctly plus upgrading the mobs takes no time? Im sure even simple thing as making sure they drop properly is not a simple thing given their limited resources.

Way i see it is simple,

1) spenders - be glad we had something new to do, n capped b4 most n wearing new gears that most can only wish for. Admit it, whats the price for strutting around with new lustrous sets n everyone goes ahhing or oohing? Its priceless.
And like everything else in this world, u are free to spend your money in any way u want, nobody forced u to buy platinums. Not happy? Spend somewhere else.

2) non spenders - u got this game and all related contents for free, it wont matter to u if its PL, AL,BL,CL,DL, EL etc. dont like it here? Go somewhere else, plenty of free contents available elsewhere, just stop your unsponsored whinings.

3) devs - i honestly feel u are doing a great job with your limited resources. Of cos i love frequent updates but i dont mind waiting. Just do what u have to do. Real pocket legenders will always stay to support u guys, thanks.

Have a nice day everyone, especially the good people at STG.

I don't understand your point. Why would people spend on a game that theyre not getting satisfied with? First there has to be a good update and then the money will come.
